The Clippers and free-agent Ronny Turiaf have agreed to a one-year, veteran’s minimum contract worth $1.146 million, said NBA executives who were not authorized to speak publicly on the matter.

Turiaf is currently in London, playing for France in the Olympics (they will face Team USA on Sunday).

Before that Turaif played sparingly for the Miami Heat, at least until the playoffs he started seven games for the champions in the playoffs. Although that really speaks to the Heat’s problems at center more than anything else. Asked to play limited minutes, Turiaf can give some decent play to the Clippers.

If nothing else, the Clippers just inked one o the best sideline cheerers in the game.

@Friar Tuck and Limeyloo The dude brings it every game he steps on the court .Undersized , yes but huge heart and came back from heart surgery to play with the best ballers in the world. What have you done.? Besides be jealous that he makes more $$ than you.He’s never had on or off court issues.Wish there was more NBA guys like him.He could have gone to Europe and won a championship with some Euro-trash, made more $$ but he stayed to enjoy his life here. Which is more than I can say about you.Grown up.
